Party counters allegations of security threat from protesting farmers
Accusing the BJP of ‘defaming’ Punjab, Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge on Friday shared a clip from Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s January 5 trip to the State in which persons carrying a BJP flag and raising slogans in honour of Mr. Modi can be seen on the flyover.
The 26-second clip showed the Prime Minister’s vehicle being greeted with cheers of ‘Modi Zindabad’ by a group of people who were on a parallel carriage way of the flyover where his convoy had stopped due to blockade by protesting farmers.
“Modi ji, isn’t this proof that you tried to defame the people of Punjab and Congress CM [Chief Minister] @CHARANJITCHANNI’s Govt? The only threat to PM and the nation’s security are BJP workers,” the veteran Congress leader posted on Twitter.
